Flea market finds

I asked Kent to be my chauffeur today. He does that for me occasionally (at least once a week). This time I bought him lunch at Hy-Vee. They had the salad bar or Chinese buffet for $5 each. I bought some things there, then headed over to Target to get something for Mom. We dropped it off at Mom's, ran over to KFC for her lunch and back again. A couple more stops, but my plans went awry. I only use one kind of antiperspirant/deodorant from Avon, and the place I usually get it is closed on Saturdays (I forgot). So I talked Kent into taking me to the flea market, where there is usually at least one person selling Avon products. The Avon booth wasn't where I expected it, but I saw this while I was looking: I had a tin dollhouse when I was a little girl. I don't know if it was this big, but it had this type of shape where the upstairs was smaller than the downstairs and there was a patio upstairs (if I remember correctly).

It's General Conference today. My usual thing is to stay home with the intention to watch conference online, but hardly ever do. And today it's even more tempting to go back to bed, as I stayed up later than usual (4 a.m. - bad me) and I'm soooo tired. But on Wednesday I did a family history presentation for the Young Women. We ran out of time and didn't get my real goal done, which was to get names the YW can take to the temple for the youth temple trip this month. So I told them I would bring my laptop and we could work on it between sessions. There's a potluck, but it shouldn't take the whole two hours. I'm so tired, and I'm not sure if it's allergies or the beginning of a cold, but my bed looks real good right now ... I'm going to see if I can get Cayla to get up. Update: I called Mom, she's not going. Cayla is nearly as tired as I am. I'll try to make myself available for the YW at other times before the trip.
